    NINETEENTH ANNUAL CONVENTION OF THE PI BETA PHI FRATERNITY CLA YPOOL HOTEL, INDIANAPOLIS, I NDIANA, lit", 26th to 30th, 1906. Tlze Social Side of the Convention Indiana Pi Phis had neither mountains or magnificent scenery. nor yet a World's Fair to offer their guests, as had Boulder and . SI. Louis; neither did they have the historic south-land that New Orelans will give. Indianapolis is just a new, growing city of the central states, but her Pi Phis gave their very best Hoosier welcome. The business of Convention was the source of interest fo r both delegates and visitors. With seven business sessions in four days and committee work besides, there was little time left for the purely social. Tuesday evening the parlors of the hotel were opened to Pi Phi. There was no fonnal line of hostesses, but each group of delegates and guests became a small reception, introducing the newcomers. Wednesday was Alumnae Day, both in the Convention and in entertainment. The afternoon was given up to the Indiana alumnae, who entertained Theta, Kappa, Delta Gamma, Chi Omega and Alpha Phi alumnae for our Council, delegates and guests. The occasion was a musicale given by Miss E lisabeth Patterson Sawyers of Iowa Alpha. The Propylaeum was deco­ rated with palms, carnati ons and a touch of wine and blue. The 2 BIEXl\' I AL COA'{'EXT/ON program. which follows, was delightfully interrupted by the mu sician, who gave a iew words' preface for each number. Her ease and technique charmed her audience.

  • A History of Women's Greek Letter Organizations
    The History of Women’s Fraternal Organizations Harvard College, the first college founded in North America, was chartered in 1636; its primary mission was to educate male clergymen. It took more than 200 years for American women to make a foray into the world of higher education. In 1870, less than one percent of all females aged 18 through 21 years were enrolled in higher education. Those who attended coeducational institutions sought support systems and friends with whom they could share their educational pursuits. Although most colleges had literary and debating societies that females could join, some women were seeking closer ties. The men’s fraternity system had been established and chapters were located at many colleges. Therefore, there was a model upon which to create women’s fraternities. The women’s fraternity movement began in the Midwest soon after the end of the Civil War. I.C. Sorosis, today known by its original Greek motto, Pi Beta Phi, was founded on April 28, 1867 at Monmouth College in Illinois. A second chapter was established at Iowa Wesleyan University in Mount Pleasant, Iowa in late 1868. Shortly thereafter, P.E.O., now a community philanthropic, educational organization, was founded as a collegiate society at Iowa Wesleyan University. In 1870, Kappa Alpha Theta came to life at Indiana Asbury University (now DePauw University) in Greencastle, Indiana. Later that year, Kappa Kappa Gamma began at Monmouth College. Alpha Delta Pi and Phi Mu, both founded at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia, consider themselves the oldest secret sisterhoods. They began as rival literary societies in the 1850s and they did not take on Greek letter names or expand beyond the Wesleyan Female College campus until the early 1900s.
